Alexander's Peanut Butter Puppy Biscuits
Title: Alexander's Peanut Butter Puppy Biscuits
Categories: Canine
Yield: 1 servings
1 1/2 c Water
1/2 c Safflower oil -- No
-Substitutes!
2 md Eggs
3 tb Peanut butter -- no sugar
-(Scudder Creamy)
2 ts Vanilla
1 1/2 c Whole wheat flour
1 1/4 c Unbleached white flour
1/2 c Cornmeal
1/2 c Rolled oats
-Additional flour
Alexander's favorite biscuits. He opens the cupboard and cries for
them! This recipe as well as Alexander's Veggie Thins came into being
out of desperation. He would not eat any kind of purchased dog
biscuit!
Mix water, oil, eggs, peanut butter, and vanilla with a wire whisk.
Add flours, cornmeal, and oats. Combine with a mixer. Take
one-third of the dough and place on a floured surface. Flour top of
dough. Gently knead, adding more flour as necessary to form a
pliable dough (This will require a substantial amount of flour).
Roll out to 1/2 - 3/4 inch thickness and cut shapes using cookie
cutters. I use a doughnut cutter so Alexander gets larger and
smaller biscuits. Repeat until all dough is used.
Place on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake 400 F, 20-25 minutes,
depending on thickness of biscuits . Leave in oven 20 minutes after
turning oven off to crisp.
Store airtight.
Alexander's Veggie Thins (Biscuits)

1 1/4 c Flour
1/4 c Dry Milk Powder
2 tb Dry Milk Powder --
-Additional
1 Vegetable Cube -- Or Packet
1/4 c Boiling Water
2 tb Boiling Water -- Additional
1/4 c Safflower oil -- No
-Substitutes!
1 ts Brown sugar -- not packed
1/4 c Carrots -- shredded or
-ground
1/2 Egg -- Or Egg Substitute
-Additional Small Flour For
-dusting
-Variation:
-Garlic powder
Alexander is our much loved Shetland Sheepdog and he loves his
crackers. They are fairly thin and delicious, and freeze well..
Preheat oven 300 F.
Dissolve veggie cube or packet in the boiling water.
Mix dry ingredients; mix wet ingredients separately, except egg.
Pour wet ingredients into dry; mix lightly. Add a well in the center
and add the egg. Mix. Place dough on a lightly floured surface,
sprinkle a little flour on top. Roll out to not more than 1/8".
To avoid dough sticking to rolling pin, sprinkle a little flour on
top of dough. The key is not to use too much flour. They will puff
up otherwise. Cut out shapes with a cookie cutter. I use a doughnut
cutter so Alexander gets some small and some large Veggie Thins.
Place on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 15 minutes., turn them over
and bake another 10 minutes.
Cool on wire racks.

Auggie's Wolfdown Dogfood
Title: Auggie's Wolfdown Dog Food
Categories: Canine
Yield: 1 servings
16 qt Stew pot with cover
Enough olive oil to coat
-bottom of pot
5 lb Ground beef; (5 to 6)
2 cn Chicken broth; (50 oz)
4 c Water
1 3 lb bag frozen corn
1 3 lb bag brown rice
Brown ground beef in olive oil. When beef is cooked, add broth,
water, and corn. (Note that broth and water amount to just over a
gallon of liquid; you can also just dump in a gallon jug of water and
add a bunch of bouillon cubes.) Bring to a boil. Add brown rice, stir
well, cover, and bring to a boil again. Reduce heat to low and
simmer, covered, for 1 hour. Remove from heat and let cool overnight.
Makes approximately 40-45 cups of food.
For Auggie, my black lab, I divide the yield into generous 2-cup
portions and freeze most of it (it freezes well). I always have some
thawed in the fridge and microwave it for a minute or so to get it to
room temperature. I then serve it as follows:
Breakfast 1 portion (2 cups) Wolfdown 1 cup high-quality all-natural
kibble
Dinner 1 portion (2 cups) Wolfdown 1 cup fresh shredded veggies 2-3
times a week: a little nonfat plain yogurt and an egg yolk

Baker's Bagels
Title: Baker's Bagels
Categories: Canine
Yield: 1 servings
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 package yeast (1/4 ounce)
1 cup chicken or beef broth, warmed
1 tablespoon honey
1 cup unbleached white flour
1. Preheat oven to 375°.
2. In large bowl combine the whole wheat flour with the yeast.
Add 2/3 cup chicken broth and honey and beat for about 3 minutes.
Gradually add the remaining flour. Knead the dough for a few minutes
until smooth and moist, but not wet (use reserve broth as necessary).
3. Cover the dough and let it rest for about 5 minutes.
Divide the dough into about 15-20 pieces, rolling
each piece into a smooth ball. Punch a hole into each ball with your
finger or end of spoon and gently pull the dough so the hole is about
an 1/2" wide. Don't be too fussy here, the little bagels rise into
shape when they bake.
4. Place all the bagels on a greased cookie sheet and allow to rise 5 minutes.
Bake for 25 minutes. Turn the heat off and allow the bagels to cool in the oven.
Unlike the human variety, these little canine bagels are crunchy. To
soften them, for the occasional treat of bagels with cream cheese or
peanut butter, microwave for about 30 seconds.

Beardie Coolers
Title: Beardie Coolers
Categories: Canine, Misc.
Yield: 1 servings
2 Fresh beef; (or other
-species) marrow bones
At least 1 inch long
Water
1 Beer
In about a 2 qt pan, put the bones, and add enough water to cover the
bones. Bring water to a boil; continue to boil for at least 10 min.
(More time is ok, for a richer broth.)
Remove bones, and return any beef marrow to the liquid, along with
any meat that you can get off the bones. Cool the broth to room
temperature. Pour liquid only into 2-4 ice cube trays. Chop up the
marrow/meat/gristle into little bits, and put them into each section
of the tray. Freeze solid. Serve 2-3 cubes to your beardie on a very
hot day. (Not too many if you made the broth very rich with extra
bones or lots of marrow.)
Drink the beer yourself, while your dog enjoys the beardie coolers.

Beef Jerky Bait
Title: Beef Jerky Bait
Categories: Canine
Yield: 1 servings
3 lb Thinly sliced beef**
2/3 c Worcestershire sauce
1 ts Black pepper
2/3 c Soy sauce
1 ts Garlic powder; (not salt)
1 ts Onion powder; (not salt)
1 tb Liquid smoke (If you use a
-smoker instead; don't use
-this--over
Drying it in the oven
2 ts Tabasco sauce or 1-2 tsp
-crushed red; (2 to 3)
Peppers; (this is for a
-spicier version)
**best choices are London broil, sirloin tip roast, or sirloin steak
cuts. These should be cut in strips about 1" wide and 1/4" thick. To
facilitate cutting, put meant in the freezer until it is stiff but
not frozen. You will end up with about 20-25 strips.
Note: You're in the ring and have a piece of bait in your hand.
Suddenly, you notice that you need to restack your dog's foot. What
to do with the bait? Well, I'm one of the world's weirdos who
actually likes liver, and I used to put it in my mouth for those few
seconds it took for me to fix something. That is until I bought liver
from a vendor at a show because I didn't have any of my own. It was
rancid, and fortunately, I didn't actually get sick in the ring, but
it was a close call. Never felt quite the same about liver at a dog
show. But this recipe is something that you won't even mind eating.
In fact, you'll probably have to watch that you don't snack up all
your bait!
Put all ingredients in a large zip-lock bag and place in a bowl in the
refrigerator overnight (bowl is in case the zip-lock leaks). You can
also put all ingredients in a large, covered glass bowl and marinate
over night. Next day, clean the top oven rack and take out only as
much meat as the rack will accommodate (for most ovens, this is about
10 pieces). Put a cookie sheet or foil on the bottom rack to keep
your oven from getting too messy. Set your oven on its lowest setting
and crack the door so the moisture will escape and leave on until the
pieces are dried. Smaller pieces will take about 2-1/3 to 3 hours,
while larger ones may take 4 or 5. If you use a smoker, mesquite,
pecan, or hickory wood work very well but don't use water. While you
want to smoke them, you also want the beef to dry. Or you can drag
out that food dehydrator you got for Christmas two years ago that's
been sitting in a back closet.

---------------------------GLAZE--------------------------------
1 Large egg
2 tb Milk
Equipment: Cookie sheets lined with parchment or aluminum foil;
rolling pin; 3-31/2" bone cutter or 2 1/2" round cookie cutter.
Place 2 oven racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven. Preheat
oven to 300F.
Sprinkle the dry yeast or crumple the compressed yeast over the water
(110F if dry yeast, 100F if compressed yeast). Add a pinch of sugar
and allow the yeast to sit in a draft-free spot for 10-20 minutes.
The mixture should be full of bubbles. If not, the yeast is too old
to be useful.
In a large bowl, place all the dry ingredients and stir to blend
them. Add the yeast mixture and 3 cups of the broth. Using your
hands, in the bowl, mix to form the dough, adding more broth if
needed to make the dough smooth and supple. Half a batch at a time,
knead the dough briefly on a lightly floured counter. (Keep the
second batch of dough covered with a moist towel while shaping and
cutting the first.)
Roll out the dough into an 18 x 13 x 1/4" rectangle. Cut it into
desired shapes, using a 3 - 3 1/2-inch bone cutter or a 2 1/2-inch
round cookie cutter. Reroll the scraps. Repeat the procedure with
the remaining dough.
For an attractive shine, lightly beat together the egg and milk.
Brush the glaze on the cookies.
Bake for 45 to 60 minutes or until brown and firm. For even baking,
rotate the cookie sheets from top to bottom three quarters of the way
through the baking period.
Use a small, angled metal spatula or pancake turner to transfer the
cookies to wire racks to cool completely.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature. The dough must
be used immediately. The baked cookies will keep for many months.

ingredients (flour and grains). If the mixture is too stiff for your
machine to mix easily, add 1 to 2 tbsp. more liquid. Hope this helps.
Note:
using this method - use only dough cycle, then remove and roll or pat
dough out and bake in the oven....

Title: Bullet's Bites
Categories: Canine
Yield: 1 servings
2 1/2 c Whole wheat flour
1 ts Sugar
1/3 c Non-fat powdered milk
6 tb Margarine
1 Egg
1. Preheat oven to 350°. 2. Mix ingredients with about 1/2 cup of cold
water. Knead for 3 minutes. Dough should form a ball. Roll to 1/2"
thick and cut into dog bones (or cut with pizza cutter if you're in a
hurry). Bake on a lightly greased cookie sheet for 30 minutes.
You can make these even more special by adding 3 tablespoons of
powdered chicken, beef bouilon, or dried soup.*
*All of these ingredients have a high salt content (see below). A good
substitution is fresh meat stock with no salt added by you when it is
cooked or baby food (any meat flavor) if it is unsalted.
**Most cheese has a high salt content. Read your labels before you
buy/use this ingredient!
***I don't think they're adding any salt to baby food these days, but
be sure and check the label to make sure.
SALT - This is not good for your dog, because a dog's body cannot
process salt. Salt can accumulate and cause kidney disease in old
age. At any time in a dog's life, if salt is given in excess, it
could cause your dog's kidneys to react and swell. Your dog would
have to be totally without water for a period of days if this happens
before the kidneys could function normally again (just think about
how serious that is) if the dog survived. NOTES : Another quickie for
great treats.

Because of the Schnauzer, Dalmatian, and certain other breeds'
tendency toward urinary stone formation, diets and treats low in
"purine-yielding ingredients" are advised. Every attempt has been
made to ensure that this recipe uses relatively low purine
ingredients, however I cannot guarantee that your dog will not have a
reaction to these treats, either allergic or urinary. It is very
important to monitor the pH of your dog's urine when introducing new
foods and treats to its diet. The urinary pH should not deviate from
the normal pH of 7.0 if all is well. If you note any deviation, you
should contact your veterinarian immediately for a standard
urinalysis to see if abnormal urinary crystals are forming which can
"grow up" to become obstructing stones, or to detect other urinary
problems. Also keep in mind that these treats should be fed in small
amounts and are not meant to replace a well-balanced diet.

Add 1/4 cup grated parmesan
1/2 c Grated cheddar cheese
1/2 c Cut grated carrots; (or any
-other leftover
Veggies you have)

1/2 c Cornmeal; (or more) to bind
-it all
Together
Spread on a lightly greased piece of tin foil on a cookie sheet. It
is very THICK -- like wet concrete!
Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. (Lately I've been baking it for
about 20 minutes at 350, then turning the oven down to 200 and
letting it go slowly for about 20 more). When it is done, peel off
the tin foil, break the liver into pieces, and then freeze in
packages to fit your needs. These cookies will keep without
refrigeration for at least a week if it isn't in the sun or extreme
heat; it breaks into tiny pieces using only your fingernails; it
doesn't go mushy; and dogs will do just about ANYTHING for just a
crumb of it! It will keep for several weeks in the refrigerator; it
can be FROZEN AND REFROZEN numerous times, and it thaws in less than
5 minutes! My dogs even love it right from the freezer!
To make a crunchy bait, bake til it looks like a biscuit. Freeze
unused portions in sealed bags. Back to Top

2 ½ cups unbleached all purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking soda
1 egg
¼ cup oil
1 cup crunchy peanut butter
2 teaspoons vanilla
water
1 cup carob chips (optional, but I think they're yummy!)

Combine the flours and baking soda in a bowl and stir with a whisk. Add egg, oil, peanut butter, and vanilla and stir with a wooden spoon until lumpy. (Yum!) Add carob chips. Slowly add cold water 1 teaspoon at a time until a stiff dough forms. Do not over mix. After that, lick the wooden spoon clean!

(Have a human help you with the measurements) Bake at 325º Fahrenheit for 30 minutes. Remove from oven and cool for 20 minutes. Always be careful with heat! You can burn your paws. So always have a friend handy!( Preferably a human because they have thumbs!)
With a serrated knife, cut logs into ½- inch slices. (Have a human do that part.) Return slices to cookie sheet and bake at 325º Fahrenheit for 20 minutes, or until golden. Cool and store in airtight tins or plastic bags ( If I don't eat them all first!)

Yield: 1 servings
1/4 c Hot water
8 Cubes chicken bouillon cube
1 pk Dry yeast
1 ts Sugar
1 1/2 c Tomato juice
2 c All-purpose flour
2 c Wheat germ
1 1/2 c Whole wheat flour
1. Preheat your oven to 300 degrees, then pour rhe water into a large

make the dough very dry and stiff). You'll probably have to use your
hands to finish mixing. 3. Sprinkle flour on your cutting board, then
take a couple of handfuls of dough out and work into a small ball
shape. Then, with a rolling pin flatten the balls to about 1/4 thick
on the cutting board. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more
flour 4. Now use a table knife to cut out your people shapes. Then
repeat the whole process again with the rest of the dough, working a
few handfuls at a time. 5. Finally, use a spatula to put your people
biscuits onto a cookie sheet. Then bake at 300 degrees for about an
hour. Afterwards, let them dry in the turned-off oven for quite a
while, four hours or so. 6. Serve with a bowl of water and a nice big

Rotties have nicer coats, smell better, no fleas, love their food and
are not finicky eaters as before. It takes a little longer daily but
well worth it!

Yield: 1 servings
5 lb Ground beef or chicken
3/4 c Canola oil
4 Cloves garlic; (4 to 5)
32 c Water
8 c Processed veggies (various);
-(8 to 10)
;(carrots, cauliflower, bean
-sprouts,, celery, broccoli,
Potatoes; sweet potatoes,,
-red peppers,
Spinach; beets, lettuce,
-tomatoes, etc.)
NO ONIONS; (not good for
-dogs)
2 cn Kidney beans; (2 to 3)
1/2 c Molasses; (optional)
42 oz Oatmeal (quick cooking
-oats); (42 to 45)
Eggs can be added to boost
-protein
In a large 24 qt pot brown ground meat, add canola oil and garlic.
When well cooked, add water. Bring to boil, then add veggies that
have been processed, (frozen or canned veggies will work too). I use
dried kidney beans and soak them the night before preparing a batch
of food. While I am cooking the meat I have the beans in another pot
cooking them. Once cooked, they are added to the above mixture. Next,
the oatmeal is added. Frequent stirring is necessary at this point as
the mixture will stick. Remove from heat, cool and put into
containers. The above mixture feeds 3 Boxers for 1 week. I
occasionally add pumpernickell bread and some times substitute brown
rice for some of the oatmeal. This recipe is very flexible.

Inside Flea Control
Inside Flea Control
Procedure
Keep your vacuum from being a home for fleas by putting a flea collar, flea powder or moth balls in the vacuum cleaner bag. Boric acid powder is highly effective against flea infestation. It is safe, inexpensive and the effects can last for up to two years. There are a couple of name brands available locally called Terminator, De-Limenator or Flea Buster's. Each of these products you need to sprinkle onto your carpet, rugs, floors, furniture, under furniture cushions, under beds etc....Wear a mask when working with these powders just so you don't breathe the powder. Or... you can make your own mixture: **Combine 3 cups diatomaceous earth (found at your nursery) with 1/2 cup boric acid (available at any pharmacy). Sprinkle throughout house and after one or two days vacuum. It can take up to three or four weeks for all the fleas to be killed, but you should see a difference right away. This will last up to two years, or until you clean your carpets next. **Combine Borax cleaning powder with table salt. ( 8 to 1) Sprinkle throughout house, sweep in lightly, leave on for a week, then vacuum. **Sprinkle table salt throughout house, and rub it into everything. Let stand overnight, then vacuum. All three of these powders act as a desiccant, dehydrating the fleas and their larva.

Liver Pate' - a delicacy for both cats and dogs
Liver Pate' - a delicacy for both cats and dogs
Liver rates a "10" on both the Feline and Canine flavor scare. Happily, it is also an excellent source of protein and vitamin A, both a top-priority to your pet's nutrition. I bake this in a truly French-style in a bain-marie to make it authentic. It is a little bit of work, but my four-legged connoisseurs love it!!
Makes 2 four-ounce pate's that will keep in the refrigerator up to a week if kept in tightly sealed plastic container.
2 chicken hearts
2 chicken gizzards
6 ounces chicken livers, 1 ounce chicken fat
1 large egg
1/2-teaspoon bone meal (optional)
1/2-teaspoon garlic powder
1/8-teaspoon salt
Sprig of parsley for garnish
1) Rinse the chicken hearts, gizzards and livers under cold water. Pat dry. Dice the hearts and gizzards. Set aside.
2) Preheat oven to 350 F
3) In a small skillet, render the chicken fat over low heat. It will yield one tablespoon. Transfer the rendered fat to a small bowl and set aside.
4) In the same skillet, reheat on teaspoon of the reserved fat over medium head. Add the hearts and gizzards and cook until brown, about 2 minutes. Remove from skillet and set aside.
5) In a food processor, combine the livers, egg, bone meal, garlic powder and salt. Process until smooth. Add the reserved hearts and gizzards. Process just to combine for a pate' with a chunky texture.
6) Prepare 2 mini-loaf pans by coating each with one teaspoon of the reserved fat. Fill equally with the mixture.
7) Bring 3 cups of water to a boil. Place a 9-inch cake pan in the oven and fill it with the boiling water. Sit the loaf pans with the pate' mixture in the hot water bath and bake for 30 minutes.
8) Remove and let cool then place in the refrigerator to chill until firm.
9) Remove from pans and place on an elegant saucer and garnish with parsley. Serve with plenty of fresh water.

Because of the Schnauzer, Dalmatian, and certain other breeds'
tendency toward urinary stone formation, diets and treats low in
"purine-yielding ingredients" are advised. Every attempt has been
made to ensure that this recipe uses relatively low purine
ingredients, however I cannot guarantee that your dog will not have a
reaction to these treats, either allergic or urinary. It is very
important to monitor the pH of your dog's urine when introducing new
foods and treats to its diet. The urinary pH should not deviate from
the normal pH of 7.0 if all is well. If you note any deviation, you
should contact your veterinarian immediately for a standard
urinalysis to see if abnormal urinary crystals are forming which can
"grow up" to become obstructing stones, or to detect other urinary
problems. Also keep in mind that these treats should be fed in small
amounts and are not meant to replace a well-balanced diet.

Because of the Schnauzer, Dalmatian, and certain other breeds'
tendency toward urinary stone formation, diets and treats low in
"purine-yielding ingredients" are advised. Every attempt has been
made to ensure that this recipe uses relatively low purine
ingredients, however I cannot guarantee that your dog will not have a
reaction to these treats, either allergic or urinary. It is very
important to monitor the pH of your dog's urine when introducing new
foods and treats to its diet. The urinary pH should not deviate from
the normal pH of 7.0 if all is well. If you note any deviation, you
should contact your veterinarian immediately for a standard
urinalysis to see if abnormal urinary crystals are forming which can
"grow up" to become obstructing stones, or to detect other urinary
problems. Also keep in mind that these treats should be fed in small
amounts and are not meant to replace a well-balanced diet.

Lucy's Liver Slivers
Title: Lucy's Liver Slivers
Categories: Canine
Yield: 1 servings
1/2 lb Cooked chicken livers
1 c Chicken stock*
1/2 c Corn oil
1 tb Chopped parsley
1 c Powdered milk
1 c Rolled oats
1/2 c Brewer's yeast
1 c Soy flour
1 c Cornmeal
3 c Whole wheat flour
1. Preheat oven to 350°. 2. In food processor or blender, process
chicken livers, chicken stock, corn oil and parsley until smooth.
Transfer to large bowl. Add powdered milk, rolled oats, brewer's
yeast, soy flour and cornmeal. Mix well. Gradually add whole wheat
flour. You'll have to use your hands here, kneading in as much of the
flour as it takes to create a very stiff dough. 3. Roll dough out to
1/4" thick and cut into stick shapes, about 1/2" by 4" (depending on
the size of your dog). A pizza cutter works great! 4. Bake on
ungreased cookie sheet for 20 to 25 minutes until lightly browned and
crisp. Turn off heat and let biscuits dry out in oven for several
hours. Store in the refrigerator.
NOTES : Any dog fond of liver (and what dog isn't) will devour these
iron-rich, crunchy biscuits.

Microwave Minced Lamb with Pasta, Carrot & Parsley
Title: Microwave Minced Lamb with Pasta, Carrot & Parsley
Categories: Canine
Yield: 1 servings
1 kg Lean lamb mince (can use
-veal; chicken, beef or
Hamburger; (lean) or
-combination) (1 to
1.5)
1 Bag vermicelli egg noodles;
-(Nanda/Maggi is
Better than Vetta)
1 Bag grated carrot (eg from
-Woollies/Big; (250 g )
Fresh)or do your own
Half a bunch of parsley
1 Clove garlic (if very small;
-use 2), finely
Chopped or crushed
250 ml Lactose-free milk; (e.g.
-Pets Own) or
Water to make a veggie puree
Half a cup of Meat-Bix (from
-pet shops; they get it in
-bulk
And sell by weight).
1. Puree the carrot and parsley with milk or water. Use a hand held
blender in a beaker or tall, narrow bowl, and use as much milk or
water as you need to puree with. I usually end up with 500 mL of
carrot and parsley smoothie.
2. Boil some water to cook the egg noodles in.
3. Put the mince into a covered microwave-safe dish large enough to
hold all these ingredients and mix in the garlic. Cook on high for
two minutes then remove and stir. Cook a further minute and stir -
repeat this process until meat is cooked evenly (approx 8 minutes
total).
4. Break up egg noodles (it is easier to do this now than after they
are cooked!) and cook for 3 minutes, then drain. If you use the Vetta
noodles, you will definitely need to add oil to the water first, with
the Nanda it doesn't seem to matter).
5. While you are cooking the noodles, add the Meat-Bix to the cooked
mince and mix well. It will absorb any liquid from the meat.
6. Add the drained noodles to the meat mixture and mix well - if you
think it needs more cooking do so now, before adding the pureed
vegetables.
7. Mix in the pureed vegetables. Divide into portions and freeze until
needed.

1 1/2 c Whole wheat flour
1 c Cornmeal
1 Egg; slightly beaten
1 ts Chopped garlic

Remove from heat, and chop finely (I do all the mixing in the food
processor). add the rest of the ingredients and blend. add enough of
the simmering water to make a dough. roll or pat onto a GREASED
cookie sheet and bake in a 350 degree oven for 20 to 30 min. Turn the
sheet of cookies onto a bread board and cut into approx. 1 inch
squares. Divide the batch into zip lock bags and freeze about 1/2 of
the batch. These must be kept in the fridge. They have no
preservatives and will turn blue at room temperature.
Once you have given these to your dogs, there is no going back to
store bought. The dogs will sit in front of the oven and will not
believe that peering through the little window will not make them
bake any faster. Be prepared to be hounded (sorry) once you start
boiling the liver until they get the first taste of the new batch.

Sooner or later, everyone who breeds dogs finds themselves having to
feed newborn puppies. Here is a collection of formulas that people
have used successfully. If you can't find anything else, you may try
the puppies on just plain goat's milk but plain cow's milk will not
give them the correct amount of fat and they may not be able to
assimilate it.
Recipe #1 Ingredients 2/3 C Goat milk canned (or just regular canned
milk)
1/3 c water or Pedialyte 1 tsp Karo Syrup 1 egg yolk 1 tsp Dyne
or pediatric vitamin
Strain a couple of times to make sure there is no albumin in the
mixture, although it has been used successfully without egg at all.
Received from Chryste Gettman on Showdog-L.
Variation: 1 can of Condensed Milk rather than goat's milk (it may be
too high in protein and put a strain on the puppy's kidneys 1
envelope of Knox unflavored gelatin in addition to other ingredients
(helps keep stools solid). Received from Christeen Nowrocki on
Showdog-L
Recipe #2 Ingredients 1 cup of canned Condensed milk or evaporated
milk
4 oz plain, full-fat yogurt 1 egg yolk 1 dropper full of baby
vitamins
Mix well. Received from Phyllis McNall of Showdog L
Recipe #3 Ingredients 2 cups hot water 1 can Evaporated milk (Not
condensed--both are in bakery section of store but different
products) 2 eggs 2 Tbs Karo syrup 2 envelopes Knox unflavored
gelatine.
Mix thoroughly to get the gelatin working. Received from Linda
Campbell on Showdog-L .
Recipe #4
4 oz Carnation EVAPORATED milk 4 oz FULL FAT natural, plain
yogurt 1 Tablespoon Mayonnaise, (NOT salad dressing and definitely
NOT DIET) 1 egg yolk 1 dropper full of human baby pediatric liquid

Yield: 1 servings

-2 pounds)
1/4 c Soy sauce*
2 ts Honey
1/4 ts Garlic powder
1/4 ts Onion powder
Preheat oven to 150° or lowest setting. Slice the steak, along the
grain, into thin strips about the width of thick sliced bacon. Then
cut in half, along the grain (they should be about the width of
chopsticks). Then cut in half again, across the grain. Combine the
remaining ingredients in a medium-sized bowl and mix well. Add the
meat and toss until well coated. Marinate the meat about an hour.
Cover two cookie sheets with aluminum foil and place the meat strips
in a single layer without touching. Bake for about 7 hours until the
meat is dry like jerky and dark in color. Store in an airtight
container in the refrigerator or freeze for longer storage.
NOTES : This snack might seem a bit extravagant, but any hard working
obedience dog is worth it. Rich and chewy, this jerky is guaranteed to
bring out the best in any dog. The easiest way to cut your steak is
with an electric knife. If you don't have one, borrow it. This will
really cut your prep time.

Weight Gain Recipes
Title: Weight Gain Recipes

Yield: 1 servings
When you have a dog that needs more calories than his food is
providing because he's been ill or is a finicky eater, try these
recipes for "fatballs." I freeze them and take out a couple to split
between four dogs a few times a week. To help put weight on dogs, I
give one in place of the morning meal.
This mixture gave me another use for the huge bowl I bought to make
dressing at Thanksgiving. If you don't have one like this, try a big
soup pot. I also don't have enough cookie sheets or freezer space for
all these balls, so I do one layer on the cookie sheet, cover it with
foil and do a couple of layers on each sheet. Just be sure to spray
both sides of the foil as well as all the pan with Pam or everything
will stick when it freezes. They only need to be frozen enough that
they don't stick together when they are in their storage container.
You can also add a cup of ground flaxseed, kelp, and/or garlic if you
want. Sometimes I add peanut butter, too, or use ground turkey
instead of beef.
Meatballs Recipe #1 Ingredients 10 lbs. hamburger--Buy the fattest
grind you can get, which will also turn out to be the cheapest. You
can use ground beef, turkey, or lamb, but beef probably has the
highest fat content. 20 envelopes of unflavored Knox gelatin 20 egg
yolks (you shouldn't give dogs raw egg white, but if you hate waste,
cook this up in a skillet and add it to the dog's food. The cooked
egg whites will keep for several days. You can also use them in a
soufflé or for meringue)
2 12 oz jars of wheat germ 2 regular-size boxes of Total cereal (I
often use one box of Total and about 4-6 cups of cooked brown rice or
oatmeal) 2 cups molasses (I like to use the blackstrap kind) 2 cups
oil (the original recipe calls for corn oil but I prefer safflower
oil or mix cold-pressed flax seed oil and safflower equally) Some
amount of garlic or garlic extract (Optional) 2 large cartons of
cottage cheese 2-5 cups of peanut butter
Preparation Mix all the ingredients except the meat together. Then
crumble the meat into the mixture and mix well. This takes about ten
minutes, and I've never found a better utensil for this than my
hands. When everything is well blended, form individual balls about
the size of a fist. Put them on a cookie sheet and freeze until hard,
then store them in a container or bag. Frozen, they are a great
hot-weather treat. Otherwise, thaw and mix in their regular food.
Received originally from Joanne Givens on Showdogs-L
Meatballs Recipe #2 Ingredients 6 lbs. hamburger meat 1 regular size
box Quaker Oats 1 regular size box Total cereal 1 jar unsulfured
molasses 6 egg yolks 5 cups Oil (again I prefer Safflower) 4 packages
of unflavored Knox gelatin 1 cup or more of chopped garlic (or
substitute 2-3 tbs. garlic powder) 1 cup water
Preparation Mix all ingredients except meat and mix well. Break meat
into small pieces and knead well into mixture. Form into balls an
appropriate size for your breed of dog (about a cup--fist size--for
an Akita). Place on cookie sheet in freezer until they are hard.
Remove and place in container or plastic bag. This recipe makes a
quantity more suitable for a smaller dog breed.

Wheatfree Salmon Treats
Title: Wheatfree Salmon Treats

Yield: 48 servings
8 oz Salmon; canned, with juice
1/2 c Chopped parsley
3 Eggs; shells included
1/2 c Sesame seeds; ground in
-grinder
1/2 c Flax seeds; ground in
-grinder
2 c Potato flour; (2 to 3)
Put these ingredients into a food processer, mix VERY WELL. Pour
potato flour through the opening while the motor is running. I can't
tell you exactly how much, but I would guess about 2-3 cups. When the
dough forms, like a pie curst, and rolls into a ball it is ready to
take out.
Dump this mess onto potato floured counter or board. Knead more flour
into this and when it is a rolled out cookie consistancy, it is ready
to roll out into about 14 inch thick. I use a pizza cutter to roll
our long strips and then cut crosswise to make samll squares . If you
want FANCY you may use a cookie cutter. Bake on cookie sheets,
sprayed Pam or line the sheet with parchemnt paper. I put in as many
as will fit. Usually two whole cookie sheets suffices. I bake this in
a 375º oven for 20 min. Turn and rotate the cookie sheets and bake
about 10 more minutes. You can make them as soft or as hard as you
want.
